typically made in cast film extrusion and with a higher basis weight, says the company. W&H will also focus on the manufacture of surface protection films, FFS films, barrier films with up to 11 layers and nanolayer stretch films with up to 55 layers – which can all be produced on its Filmex cast film extrusion line. It will also exhibit its Aquarex ‘upside-down’ line for making films for infusion bags. “The need for innovative quality forms for special fields of application is increasing, and we take these into account with our developments,” said Michael Fischer, CEO of W&H Asia Pacific.
Doing the Twist WM Thermoforming Machines will showcase its high-speed Twist 700 thermoforming machine at Chinaplas, as part of the Swiss pavilion. At the show, an 18-cavity machine will produce 24oz cups from 1.7mm PET rolls, supported by a
stacker model MSv 7, which is fully synchronised and supervised by a WM Machine Learning System (MSL). The MLS system consists of two
packages, allowing the user to have a full control of the operations. The first, Multi-Axis Synchronisation
(MAS), allows the operator to set the machine speed and stroke easily by entering a few parameters. MAS uses them to synchronise machine and stacking motions without operator overview.
Also, Thermoforming Process Monitoring (TPM) stores the most important process parameters and displays them to the operator, to compare ongoing with optimal parameters.
Other features of the Twist 700 include:
n a lower tilting platen, moved without mechanical cams, which rotates 75° and is guided on prismatic linear guides to reduce vibrations; n an electronic cam that guarantees high precision and repeatability of the movements;
